Ghosts of Greenglass House by Kate Milford
4.0

I received an ARC of this book on NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

This is such a fun read! It is a whimsical mystery with a crazy cast of characters and just a touch of magic. The main character, Milo, is not your typical kid, with a range of issues he is dealing with, and an alter ego to help him deal with them. He has a knack for solving mysteries and putting together the pieces of the things happening around him in a unique way, and I think he is a very relatable character, especially for kids who might be a little bit outside the box in a variety of different ways.
The writing style makes the book fun to read and easy to get into and stick with, even in places where the plot drags, which it definitely does at times. I think the plot could have been a bit more streamlined, but overall it was quite enjoyable and there were definitely some surprises along the way, as well as at the end. I would definitely recommend this book to fans of middle grade fantasy and mysteries!
